"Chang's Klingon Bird of Prey attacking the USS Enterprise. The dogs of war (phrase) In English, the dogs of war is a phrase spoken by Mark Antony in Act 3, Scene 1, line 273 of William Shakespeare's ""Julius Caesar"": ""Cry 'Havoc!', and let slip the dogs of war"". In the scene, Mark Antony is alone with Julius Caesar's body, shortly after Caesar's assassination. In a soliloquy, he reveals his intention to incite the crowd at Caesar's funeral to rise up against the assassins. Foreseeing violence throughout Italy, Antony even imagines Caesar's spirit joining in the exhortations: ""ranging for revenge, with"
"in these confines with a Monarch's voice cry 'Havok!' and let slip the dogs of war."" In a literal reading, ""dogs"" are the familiar animals, trained for warfare; ""havoc"" is a military order permitting the seizure of spoil after a victory and ""let slip"" is to release from the leash. Shakespeare's source for ""Julius Caesar"" was ""The Life of Marcus Brutus"" from Plutarch's ""Lives"", and the concept of the war dog appears in that work, in the section devoted to the Greek warrior Aratus. Apart from the literal meaning, a parallel can be drawn with the prologue to ""Henry V"","

"line 270 of ""Julius Caesar"" (1599), by William Shakespeare: ""Cry, 'Havoc!', and let slip the dogs of war"". Forsyth draws upon his journalistic experiences in reporting the 1970 Biafran War between Biafra and Nigeria; though fictional, the African 'Republic of Zangaro', is based upon Equatorial Guinea, a former Spanish colony. The novel's dedication to five men named Giorgio, Christian, Schlee, Big Marc and Black Johnny and ""the others in the unmarked graves"" concludes: ""at least we tried""—and clearly alludes to Forsyth's time in Biafra; the dark tone and cynical plot of the story stem from the same source. 1970: The"
"St Crispin's Day Speech The St Crispin's Day speech is from Shakespeare's history play ""Henry V"", in Scene iii 18–67. In the speech, which fell on Saint Crispin's Day, Henry V urged his men — who were vastly outnumbered by the French — to recall how the English had previously inflicted great defeats upon the French. The speech by Shakespeare has been famously portrayed by Laurence Olivier to raise British spirits during the Second World War, and by Kenneth Branagh in the 1989 film ""Henry V"", and it made famous the phrase ""band of brothers.""

The fight between the two armies is simulated by rowdy noises made off-stage (""alarums"" or alarms) while actors walk on-stage, deliver their lines, and exit. To build anticipation for the duel, Shakespeare requests more ""alarums"" after Richard's councillor, William Catesby, announces that the king is ""[enacting] more wonders than a man"".

"where the warlike king is described as having at his heels, awaiting employment, the hounds ""famine, sword and fire"". Along those lines, an alternative proposed meaning is that ""the dogs of war"" refers figuratively to the wild pack of soldiers ""let slip"" by war's breakdown of civilized behavior and/or their commanders' orders to wreak ""havoc"", i.e., rape, pillage, and plunder. Yet another reading interprets ""dog"" in its mechanical sense (""any of various usually simple mechanical devices for holding, gripping, or fastening that consist of a spike, bar, or hook""). The ""dogs"" are ""let slip"" – referring to the act of"

This is introduced in the opening scene when Margaret chastises Henry for yielding to York's demands and relinquishing the throne to the House of York; ""Such safety finds/The trembling lamb environ'd with wolves"" (ll.243–244). Later, as York watches his army lose the Battle of Wakefield, he laments ""All my followers to the eager foe/Turn back and fly, like ships before the wind/Or lambs pursued by hunger-starv'd wolves"" (1.4.3–5).

In the Sherlock Holmes novel ""The Hound of the Baskervilles"" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the naturalist Stapleton proposes the boom of a bittern as an explanation for the howl attributed to the mystical hound. Because of its secretive and skulking nature, it was for long unclear exactly how the bittern produced its distinctive booming call. A Mediaeval theory held that the bittern thrust its beak into the boggy ground of the marsh in which it lived, making its vocalization which was amplified and deepened as it reverberated through the water. A reference to this theory appears in 1476"
